Cultural Resources Survey. Road Alignment Alternatives Sunlight Day Recreational Area, Nimrod Lake, Arkansas
Abstract
A cultural resources reconnaissance was conducted within a single parcel of federal land containing approximately 98.30 acres in the vicinity of Nimrod Lake, Arkansas, for the purpose of assessing possible adverse impact of alternative road alignments. This investigation resulted in the discovery of two previously unrecorded archeological sites. Both sites contained prehistoric components; one site also contained a historic period component. It is recommended that testing of site 3YE295 be conducted to elucidate the nature of the extensive subsurface deposits at the site. Furthermore, it is of Archeological personnel and U.S. Army Engineer District, Little Rock, officials at the site determined that Alignment B would avoid impact to 3YE295. The eastern limits of the site were marked with green metal posts to avoid inadvertent impact during the construction of the road.
